Answer:

49 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the amount of candy and divide by the amount in a serving

2 3/4 ÷ 1/18

Change to an improper fraction

(4*2+3)/4 ÷ 1 /18

11/4 ÷ 1/18

Copy dot flip

11/4 * 18/1

198/4

49.5

Round down since people do not want half a serving

What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (3, 1) and a directrix of y = 5?
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The equation of the quadratic graph is f(x)= - (1/8) (x-3)^2 + 3 (second option)

Step-by-step explanation:

Focus: F=(3,1)=(xf, yf)→xf=3, yf=1

Directrix: y=5 (horizontal line), then the axis of the parabola is vertical, and the equation has the form:

f(x)=[1 / (4p)] (x-h)^2+k

where Vertex: V=(h,k)

The directix y=5 must intercept the axis of the parabola at the point (3,5), and the vertex is the midpoint between this point and the focus:

Vertex is the midpoint between (3,5) and (3,1):

h=(3+3)/2→h=6/2→h=3

k=(5+1)/2→k=6/2→k=3

Vertex: V=(h,k)→V=(3,3)

p=yf-k→p=1-3→p=-2

Replacing the values in the equation:

f(x)= [ 1 / (4(-2)) ] (x-3)^2 + 3

f(x)=[ 1 / (-8) ] (x-3)^2 + 3

f(x)= - (1/8) (x-3)^2 + 3

What is the solution to the system of equations?<br><br> y = –5x + 3<br><br> y = 1
Alinara [238K]
Ok so we know that y=1 so we can simply sub in the value of y into the equation :

y = -5x +3

1 = -5x +3

Move the -5x to the LHS ( Left-hand-side ) therefore it changes sign as well move 1 to the RHS ( Right-hand-side ) it also changes sign.

5x = 3 - 1

5x = 2

x = 2/5

x = 0.4

Hope this helps :).

When Anne Betty and Cynthia compared the amount of money each had, they discovered that Anne and Betty together had $12 Betty and Cynthia together had $18 and Anne and Cynthia together had $10. 
<span>Who had the least amount of money? and how much was it?
a +b = 12
b + c = 18
a + c = 10
So what I did is simple XD A logical guess and check. I started with a = 1, but that was to little. And also didn't match up. So I kept going up and got a = 2, b = 10, and c = 8</span>

A sixth grade class of 295 students is having an end of the year laser tag party. The party will cost
Korolek [52]

Answer:

The total cost of the party is approximately $2300, hence the correct answer is option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of students = 295 students

cost per student =  $8.95

Discounts given by the company = $400

To find:

We need to estimate the total cost of the party.  

Solution:

To find the total cost of the party we need to multiply the total number of students into the cost per student.

This can be done as follows:

=295×8.95

=2640.25

Therefore, the total cost of the party is $2640.25, but it is given that the laser tag company gave the students a discount of $400. Hence the total cost after discount is  

=2640.25-400

=2240.25

Therefore, the total cost of the party is approximately $2300

Hence the correct answer is option D.

Factor this expression completely 9x^2- y^2
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

(3x - y)(3x + y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Both 9x^2 and y^2 are perfects squares.

The rule for factoring perfect squares is a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b).

Here, factoring (3x)^2 - y^2 results in (3x - y)(3x + y).
